Ah....well it may matter. Don't know. Several other gamers I know who have Vista have had to re-install their componentsand drivers several times.

I do not know VIsta but I'll have you check one other thing.

Go to "Control Panel" if Vista has that and select "Sounds and Audio Devices".

I want to see if you can get to a Window that looks like this -

Select the Audio tab at the top.

Within the Audio tabbed window you will see "Sound Playback" and than a "Default Device" line.If you get that far - can you click on the drop-down arrow to the right?

Do you have two or more choices for devices? SO, for example this image shows "Realtek AC97 Audio".If you click on the drop-down arrow is there another or more choices? Can you get a screen print of thatfor us?

If you can't get to the Audio device list than the only other thing that I can think of is to have youun-install and re-install your Audio card and drivers.

By the way, you did say that it is an Audio card that you connect to, right? It is not a USB headset?

Take your mic set and put it on the ground outside - get some lighter fluid and cover it entirely (real important). Get a lighter or a book of matches and burn the mic set up. Go back into the house and get your car keys and drive to an electronic store and buy a more expensive set. This worked for me - hope this helps..........
